The Politik CD/2LP/digital is out now at Amazon, ithink, any quality record store and every digital one...

"The shit is BANGING!" DWELE

"..The Politik is my shit. Mark on the beats and Bembe` on the vocals...what more can you ask for?" BLU

"The Politik have delivered a much needed breath of fresh air in a business filled with copycats and unoriginal offerings." OKAYPLAYER.COM

"Magnificently funky fresh synth-heavy vintage soul from the future. You dig?" ONE WEEK TO LIVE


The Politik - download the album preview mixtape


"Ka-ching, ka-ching... The Politik are worth every penny of your hard-earned currency. This is the kind of musical collaboration one can hope for, and its delivery is right on the money. MdCL and Bembe are an unstoppable force to be reckoned with." - XLR8R Magazine

"Banging on every level, if the intro hook dont get ya,the rest will. This partnership is worth every penny, time to get your money out and support this shit" - Phil Asher (restless soul)


What's it all about ? The Politik is Bémbé Ségué and Mark de Clive-Lowe. Bémbé's the ubiquitous vocal and writing talent behind tunes by Bugz in the Attic, 4Hero, Silhouette Brown and MdCL's Tide's Arising album. MdCL is the musician and producer behind hundreds of futuresoul rubs with Omar, Platinum Pied Pipers, DJ Spinna, Dego, Kenny Dope and plenty more.

The Politik's self-titled debut album is out now featuring Bémbé on the mic joined by guests Blu, Bahamadia and repLife with MdCL on the production and Waajeed (Bling47), Daz I-Kue (Bugz in the Attic) and Jason Yarde.



Bembe Segue and MdCL invite you to The Politik Remix Album + Artwork Competition. We had a lot of fun making this album in London and Vancouver and now it's your chance to have a go at flipping it. We've uploaded remix parts for the entire album plus the original raw artwork.. share this link and info with everyone who might be interested!

This competition is open to anyone and everyone who'd like to have a go at remixing one (or more) songs from The Politik's debut album. The winning remixes will be compiled into the official remix album The Politik Remixed to be released on both physical and digital formats. The second part of the competition is an artwork remix competition for the cover art of the official release. Download the original artwork by Joshua Mays and have a go at reworking it in the spirit of the Remix.

All entries must be received by April 14, 2008.
